Super Smash Bros. for WiiU & 3DS director Masahiro Sakurai said: "Pic of the day. Look at these three radiant pieces... Yup, you guessed it! It's another combinable item like the Dragoon-the Daybreak."


He included a second picture saying "This is what it looks like when all three parts are combined together. How powerful will its beam blast be? FYI, you can fire shooting items while moving backward and forward. Change direction by flicking the Control Stick or Circle Pad toward the back of the fighter. "

Looks like something Samus would equip to her arm cannon.

Curious as to how smaller characters like Kirby/Pikachu/Olimar/etc will handle it.

Darn. I was hoping for a Ganondorf reveal, complete with a new moveset. Items do nothing for me.

The Daybreak, eh? It's nice, but somehow the OHKO laser of death that goes through walls is underwhelming in Kid Icarus.

On that note, competitive KIU players wouldn't bat an eye if items are left on because they're ineffectual. The OHKO laser of death that goes through walls isn't considered to be gamechanging enough to redo a match if items are left on.

Having not played Ki uprising, I thought it looked a bit like Samus's gunship. Too bad we didn't get the ganondorf reveal, the end of the direct got me hyped :(

I was hoping Sakurai would've posted Ganondorf as a returning character for the daily pic, since there was a Hyrule Warriors Direct, but this will do it looks awesome.

Not liking this at all. I hated the Dragoon item, it's the one item that I ALWAYS turn off when playing casually, a second one means another item to turn off, lovely.

Also, what the **** is up with so much Kid Icarus content in this game? Look, I understand Kid Icarus: Uprising was a unique game and Sakurai made it, but that doesn't mean you over represent it. I'm honestly surprised that Sakurai said Dedede was not added to Melee because he felt he was over representing the Kirby series when he does this in this game.

I wonder if Daybreak will have the same relationship between Smash Ball and Dragoon in Brawl, whereas one will not spawn while the other is in play. Will it prevent the Dragoon from coming into play? Probably.

wasn't aware of this item but it looks fantastic! Too bad it has to be combined but i guess it has 1Hit-KO power so collecting parts is the downside of it...

Kid Icarus has only two characters.
Items are a trivial matter.

Also, the Smash fanbase, the only one that complains about having too much content.
